The present disclosure relates to a wireless display system for wirelessly transmitting and receiving audio/video (A/V) data.
As image technology changes from analog to digital, development has been made from SD (Standard-Definition) to HD (Hi-Definition) to provide images closer to a real scene. SD supports a resolution of 704×480 and consists of about 350,000 pixels. HD is classified into HD and Full HD. Among them, Full HD supports a resolution of 1920×1080 and consists of 2 million pixels to provide a significantly higher quality image compared to SD.
Recent image technology is growing one step further to Ultra High-Definition (UHD) beyond Full HD. UHD, which supports high image quality and ultra-high resolution, is spotlighted as a next-generation media environment. The UHD supports 4K (3840×2160) and 8K (7680×4320) resolutions and surround audio of up to 22.2 channels. Compared to the HD, the UHD provides 4 times higher picture quality than the 4K UHD, and the 8K UHD provides 16 times higher picture quality than the HD.
Recently, a wireless display system that wirelessly transmits such a high-resolution image to a display device has emerged.
The wireless display system is a system for transmitting and receiving A/V data between an A/V transmitting device and an A/V receiving device through a local area network.

Therefore, wireless connection for video/audio transmission may be established in a power standby state.
In this case, since a remote control input signal or other power on signal is input to each of the A/V transmitting device and the A/V receiving device, there is inconvenience in use.
An object of the present disclosure is to synchronize input signals of remote control devices between a transmitting device and a receiving device in a wireless display system.
